I don't feel it is selfish at all. I feel it is very loving of you and when the child gets old enough you could tell him/her the truth. That you wanted a child to love and that you thought that maybe one day you would meet someone that would be a very good dad for him/her. I feel like this day and time that you should be able to do what you want in that perspective. I applaud you for it. Good luck in whatever you decide.

I think you should do what you want. Don't let others decide for you. I'm a lesbian so if i have a kid I'd have to be artificial inseminated or adopt. Alot of people say it's wrong but same sex couples can raise a child as well as opposite sex couples. Don't worry about what you will tell the child now, take one day at a time. Good Luck 2 ya !!!!

Unfortunately, it is selfish. You would be deliberately denying your child a father. Fathers are incredibly important. Why not consider adopting an older, harder to place child? While I think every child deserves a mother and a father, a loving,single parent beats the foster system any day. Good luck!

i would never choose to be a single mom... i wasn't given the choice.... that is selfish and i think every child deserves a dad of some kind.
